my bud just picked up a 91 with a swapped in 8.8 rear with diskbig upgrade.I just bought a fully built 97 tj.love toys but for what i do the jeeps do awesome.

what are the future plans?

going to do an SOA first with stock springs. the body is in bad shape so i might be getting full armor and roll cage from poison spyder (maybe). dont want to dump to much money into it, just get it streetable and safe.

poison spider makes some nice stuff.i can post some pics of my armor all PSthe high rise fenders and the .pricey tho.smittybilt has some nice products for the price,I dont like there f fenders. real plain

Id do a SYE first tho.then spring overthen shackle reverse to rear of front springs. then steering. and so on

luckily the PO did a SYE allready so I dont need to worry about it. Ive been looking for info on doing a shackle reversal but haven't found anything yet.Im also looking in to the steering, trying to find different options for the D30.

just priced out smittybilt XRC front/rear flared fenders and the side steps on Amazon. Its $700 cheaper than poison spyder. Now the question is how good of quality is it? would it be worth paying the more money for PS gear?
